President Donald Trump’s nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court was the result of many details being ironed out.

On July 9, shortly before Trump nominated Kavanaugh to replace retiring Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy, Trump expressed appreciation for former Attorney General Edwin Meese. Many people believe Meese has had a major influence on Kavanaugh’s nomination and on many others on Trump’s list of possible candidates for conservative judges.
